Family update

I will post my family news and hope that others will follow with theirs. My kids are fine. Suzy has an ecological clothing store in Manzanita, Oregon and loves what she does. I think she and her husband Jud will live there forever. Luke lives in Sioux Falls, S DAK with his girlfriend Heather. She just graduated from college and will enter the masters program in the fall here in Bemidji, if all works out. They hope to move back here in the spring which is a dream come true for me! Andy has been at Beltrami Electric for 34 years now and is looking forward to retirement in a couple of years. What we will do is beyond me as he is pretty much a stay at home guy...loves his ham radio and so I think that is where he will perch! Lucky I have hobbies to keep me busy! I just spoke with Marlene and she says Hi to everyone! She is not a computer person but will be giving her neighbor the url so at least she can read the messages. I will be sending Gloria the invite and her kids so they can join too. My hope is that we will not drift apart but draw closer as we get to know each other better and maybe our children will connect so that what we once had at Grandma Hagen's house will somehow continue. We were very lucky! Remember, you can use the comment button or you can begin your own post, whichever is easier. I hope that someone will find the time to do this as I see value in it if we try.
